Breaking News: People don't want to die!

If you try to kill people it turns out they won’t come out to vote for you. Wild! Who knew? In a stunning development people want to actually live? This is a game changer. Seniors aren’t willing to be sacrificed on the Alter Of Capitalism. We learn something new everyday.

From the link -

Morning Consult tracked surveys showing that people older than 65 strongly believe — by a 6-to-1 margin — that the government should focus more on addressing the spread of coronavirus than on restarting the economy.

Chris Hale, a disabled Army veteran said he is a resident of Tennessee who currently lives in Peterstown, W.Va., and drove to Richmond to join the protest.

“The government is allowing the alcohol and the ABC places to stay up but shutting down the churches, so that’s an infringement on the First Amendment,” he said.

“We’re calling this the American spirit parade because the American spirit is based on freedom, and we’re asking the governor to open churches and businesses to allow adults to take personal responsibility for their health and well being,” said Diana Shores, executive director of the Virginia First Foundation, as she helped to coordinate protesters staging at Willow Lawn Shopping Center.

It was the laziest “protest” ever. Everyone in their cars. It looked like a Saturday afternoon at Chik fil a.

The local paper headline was

Protesters circle Capitol Square in honking vehicles calling on Northam to ease coronavirus shutdown

Honking could have been replaced by “honkey”
